Final Projects Due December 9th

For the final project, each student is asked to present a portfolio of 10 images that have been retouched. All 10 of these photos should be burned to a DVD and turned in, with the layers. Not Flat.

**NO LATE PROJECTS WILL BE ACCEPTED** Due the last day of class: December 9.

5 images need to be printed:

4 of the photos should be printed 8x10" or larger
1 photo should be printed 20x24" or larger

These 5 printed images should "work" together. They don't need to all be of the same subject necessarily, but they should be a group of images that relate to each other....a cohesive edit showing 10 of your best photos from Fall 2008.

These can all be printed by you or a lab. They can be Inkjet or Digital C-Print. NO LASER PRINTS (i.e. from Kinkos or CVS) will be accepted.

Printing Location Options: MAKE SURE YOU CALL and ask what profile they use so you can make sure your file matches it (EDIT> Assign Profile)!!
